Dear Colleagues:

We are delighted to announce the "2025 International Workshop on Multiscale Innovative Materials and Structures (MIMS25)" to be held from October 29th through November 1st, 2025 in Cetara (Amalfi Coast) - Salerno, Italy.

You are cordially invited to participate in this workshop. Abstracts related, but not limited, to the following areas are welcome:

• Multiscale mechanics
• Mechanical and acoustic metamaterials
• Seismic metamaterials
• Waves in discrete and continuous systems
• Architectured materials and sustainable composites
• Granular materials and systems
• Smart materials and structures
• Microstructure engineering

Important dates

January 1, 2025 Abstract submission and Registration open
May 31, 2025 Abstracts due
June 15, 2025 Abstracts reviewed & Opening submissions to the MRC special issue
June 30, 2025 Registration closes - September 15, 2025 Submission deadline for the MRC special issue

Please visit the MIMS25 website (www.multiscale.unisa.it) for updates on this event, and contact us for any inquiries
(multiscale.salerno@gmail.com).

Special Issue

A special issue of Mechanics Research Communications (MRC) will collect original, peer-reviewed contributions presented at the Workshop. Papers in this issue are aimed at bringing together researchers working at the forefront of applied mechanics, material science and engineering, and physics to further our understanding of mechanics of materials at different scales, and its application to the design, modeling, manufacturing and experimentation of innovative multiscale materials and structures.

Venue

The Workshop will be held at the Cetus Hotel (www.hotelcetus.com) in a scenic venue of the stunning Amalfi Coast. The hotel is equipped with 37 rooms, all with sea view, which will be made available to the first confirmed attendees.
Alternative accommodations are available at nearby hotels (www.multiscale.unisa.it).

We look forward to meeting you in Cetara in October 2025!
